In fact I believed it was a Suse-specific issue with the way they
are providing kernel headers.
Suse is pretty much Terra-Incognita for me.
It if Renato just downloaded an unconfigured kernel source tree,
then the explanation is much more obvious... thanks for the hint.
Renato, could you please :
1. Be sure you installed the kernel-source and kernel-syms packages
2. In a terminal as root, go to the /usr/src/linux directory
3. do a "make cloneconfig"
4. do a "make modules_prepare"
5. Retry the omnibook module compilation

thanks
